Definitions

  • Nanoparticle compositions for generation of regulatory T cells and treatment of autoimmune diseases and other chronic inflammatory conditions are provided.
  • the present, invention relates to nanoparticles for the targeted delivery of antigen to liver cells, in particular, liver sinusoidal endothelial cells (LSEC) and/or Kupffer cells, and for the in vivo generation of regulatory T cells, notably CD4+CD25+FOXP3+ regulatory T cells (Treg).
  • LSEC liver sinusoidal endothelial cells
  • Kupffer cells notably CD4+CD25+FOXP3+ regulatory T cells (Treg).
  • the invention provides compositions and methods for the prevention and treatment of autoimmune diseases, allergies or other chronic inflammatory conditions, and for generation of regulatory T cells.
  • Immune tolerance to self-antigens is maintained by multiple mechanisms that control potentially pathogenic autoreactive lymphocytes, including deletion, clonal anergy or suppression by regulatory T cells (1-3). Autoimmune disease may thus result from insufficient control of autoreactive lymphocytes (4,5), and a major goal of immunotherapy for autoimmune diseases is the induction of tolerance to autoantigens by restoring regulation (6).
  • a particularly promising way to restore self-tolerance seems to be the manipulation of autoantigen-specific CD4 + CD25 + FOXP3 + regulatory T cells (Treg); adoptive transfer of these cells can prevent autoimmune or inflammatory conditions (6-10).
  • Treg feature several secreted or membrane-bound molecules that communicate inhibitory signals to other effector T cells, thereby suppressing proliferation and inflammatory cytokine secretion (11,12).
  • the majority of Treg seems to be generated in the thymus (8); however, these cells may also be generated in the periphery (9,10).
  • peripheral Treg can be generated not only by peripheral expansion of thymic Treg (13,14), but also by de novo conversion from conventional CD4 + Foxp3 " T cells (15-18). So far, however, it is not clear, how the therapeutic potential of specific Treg generation in the periphery could be effectively translated into clinically applicable therapies.
  • liver The microenvironment of the liver favours immune tolerance, presumably by a combination of tolerogenic antigen presenting cells and cytokines (19-22).
  • immune tolerance the outcome of T cell stimulation by liver cells is immune tolerance.
  • Such hepatic tolerance induction may not only function locally in the liver, but also systemically. Indeed, it has been shown that liver allografts are not only being well accepted, but, moreover, can facilitate the acceptance of skin grafts from the liver donor; whereas third party skin grafts, in contrast, are rapidly rejected (23). Oral tolerance, which is induced by oral administration of antigen, seems to be at least in part facilitated by the liver (24).
  • hepatic tolerance could be utilized to induce neuroantigen-specific Treg and protection from autoimmune neuroinflammatory disease (25), using gene transfer to liver cells.
  • the generation of Treg cells was thymus-independent, required ectopic expression of neuroantigen in the liver, and occurred by conversion from conventional CD4 + CD25 " T cells (25, 34). It was suggested that gene delivery to hepatocytes might be useful for therapy of human autoimmune disease (25, 33).
  • the inventors solved the problem of providing a pharmaceutical composition capable of inducing regulatory T cells, and thus useful for treating and preventing a disease wherein suppression of a specific immune response is beneficial, e.g. an autoimmune disease, an allergy or a disease wherein inflammation is excessive, chronic or adverse, wherein said pharmaceutical composition is suitable for use in human subjects and avoids, e.g., problems potentially associated with gene transfer.
  • the present invention provides a pharmaceutical composition comprising a nanoparticle, said nanoparticle comprising
  • a micelle comprising an amphiphilic polymer rendering the nanoparticle water-soluble
  • a peptide comprising at least one T cell epitope associated with the outside of the micelle, for use in generating regulatory T cells specific to said at least one T cell epitope in a subject.
  • nanoparticle is used interchangeably with “nanoscale particle”. Such particles have a diameter of 1-999 nm, preferably, of about 2 to about 600 nm, about 5 to about 500 nm, about 10 to about 300 nm, about 30 to about 100 nm, about 40 to about 50 nm.
  • the inventors have found that, after in vivo administration to a subject of the specific nanoparticles of the invention associated with a peptide, these nanoparticles locate in the liver, in particular, in liver sinusoidal endothelial cells, and they are capable of inducing regulatory T cells specific to the associated peptide.
  • the induced regulatory T cells were capable of suppressing experimental autoimmune encephalitis (EAE) in an animal model.
  • nanoparticles had been found to localise in a variety of tissues, including liver cells (35-38), and they had also been found to have a diverse variety of effects on the immune system (36-38). Both the predominant localisation of the presently administrated nanoparticles in liver sinusoidal endothelial cells and the clear induction of regulatory T cells by the nanoparticles of the invention was therefore surprising.
  • the nanoparticles used in the invention comprise a micelle comprising an amphiphilic polymer rendering the nanoparticle water-soluble.
  • the term "micelle” relates to an aggregate of amphiphilic molecules dispersed in an aqueous solution. The hydrophilic parts of the amphiphilic molecules are in contact with the surrounding solvent, sequestering the hydrophobic "tail” regions of the amphiphilic molecules on the inside of the micelle, and thus render the nanoparticle water-soluble.
  • This type of micelle is also known as a normal phase micelle (or oil-in-water micelle).
  • the micelle is formed by a single layer of an amphiphilic polymer.
  • Such a micelle is structurally distinct from a bilayer or a liposome formed by an amphiphilic polymer. Such structures are not, or not to a significant percentage (e.g. not more than 10%, more than 5%, or preferably, more than 1%), comprised in the pharmaceutical composition.
  • the amphiphilic polymer forming the micelle is a synthetic polymer. It may comprise a hydrophobic region comprising a hydrophobic, e.g., carboxylic, "tail" having a length of about 14-22, preferably, 16-18 C atoms.
  • the hydrophilic region of the polymer may be negatively charged in an aqueous solution.
  • the molecular mass of the polymer may be, e.g., about 30 000-50 000 g/mol.
  • the polymer is a maleic copolymer, such as poly(maleic anhydride-alt- 1-octadecene) (available, e.g., from Sigma Aldrich).
  • the polymer may also be, e.g., poly(maleic anhydride-alt- 1-tetradecene) or polyisoprene-block polyethyleneoxide block copolymer (PI-b-PEO).
  • the micelle may be formed by one, but also by more than one, e.g., two, three or four amphiphilic molecules, in particular, polymers.
  • "a” or “the” is not intended to be limiting to “one” unless specifically disclosed.
  • the core of the micelle does not comprise additional molecules or compounds, but consists of the hydrophobic regions of the amphiphilic polymers (such a micelle is schematically shown in Fig. 3A).
  • the micelle coats a solid hydrophobic core (as schematically shown in Fig. 3B), which preferably is an inorganic core.
  • the inorganic core preferably is a traceable inorganic core, e.g., comprising iron oxide, CdSe, silver or gold.
  • the diameter of the core is about 2 to about 500 nm, preferably, about 5 to about 30 nm, more preferably, about 9 to about 12 nm.
  • Exemplary inorganic cores are FeO nanoparticles stabilized by oleic acid or another carboxylic acid (C14-C22, preferably, C16-18), quantum dots (CdSe/CdS/ZnS stabilized, e.g., by trioctyloxinphosphinoxide), gold nanoparticles, e.g., stabilized by sulfonic compounds.
  • Such inorganic cores by themselves are typically not stable in an aqueous solvent such as water, but embedding them in the polymeric micelles renders them water-soluble.
  • the hydrophobic parts of the amphiphilic polymer interact with the hydrophobic core of the nanoparticle, leading to formation of a single coating layer of polymer surrounding the core.
  • the cores preferably render the nanoparticles of the invention traceable, e.g., by their characteristics in fluorescence, electron microscopy or other detection method.
  • the nanoparticle comprises an iron oxide core having a diameter of about 9 to about 12 nm encapsulated by a coating of poly(maleic anhydride-alt- 1- octadecene) to which a peptide comprising a T cell epitope is linked, preferably, covalently linked.
  • the nanoparticles comprise a lipophilic iron oxide core, synthesized according to a method of Colvin (26), preferably, with a modification of the reaction time to produce particles of about 9-12 nm as described in the examples.
  • iron oxide nanoparticles are encapsulated by incubation with poly(maleic anhydride-alt- 1 -octadecene) solution according to a protocol modified from (27) to produce water-soluble particles.
  • the nanoparticle by virtue of the polymer forming the micelle, may be negatively charged or uncharged, preferably, it is negatively charged.
  • the polymer coating may comprise acid, e.g., carboxylic acid, groups, leading to a negative charge.
  • the peptide is preferably covalently linked to the' micelles, e.g., by carbodiimide or succinimide coupling, e.g., conjugation via l-Ethyl-3-(3-dimethylaminopropyl)carbodiimide, (as, e.g., in the example 4 below), or by another method of covalently coupling peptides.
  • the peptide is localized on the outside of the micelles.
  • the peptide may also be non-covalently associated to the nanoparticle. Such nanoparticles may be prepared, e.g., by dipping and drying as described by Giri et al. (36).
  • the term "peptide” is not intended to be limiting in size, in particular, the peptide may comprise a whole protein or about 8 to about 2000 amino acids, preferably, 8-200 amino acids, 8-100 amino acids, 9-60 amino acids, or 10-20 amino acids.
  • the term also comprises combinations of different peptides, which may be linked to each other as fusion polypeptides.
  • the peptide comprises at least one T cell epitope to which regulatory T cells are to be generated. At least one epitope needs to be capable of being presented by cells of the subject to which the nanoparticles are to be administrated, i.e., the peptide and/or the subject need to be appropriately selected.
  • the peptide comprises several epitopes which enable it to be presented in a plurality of Major Histocompatibility Complex types.
  • MHC class II As the regulatory T cells are predominantly CD4+, presentation on MHC class II is of main interest in this respect.
  • the phenotype of a subject e.g., a human subject, can easily be tested.
